Year 2 Maths – Drawing the Hands on Clocks (Time to 5 Minutes) | Differentiated Worksheets 484-486
These Year 2 “Drawing the Hands on Clocks” worksheets help pupils deepen their understanding of analogue time by actively drawing the hour and minute hands on clocks, rather than simply reading the time.
The set is carefully structured to build confidence and accuracy, progressing from o’clock and half past through to quarter past, quarter to and 5-minute intervals. Pupils are required to consider the movement of the hour hand as the minutes pass, supporting secure conceptual understanding.

3 differentiated worksheets
Triangles (Lower): O’clock and half past
Circles (Middle): Half past, quarter past, quarter to and selected 5-minute intervals
